. . . and I had to have my mechanical pencil . .

. . Hold on

What’s that?

Mechanical  Pencil

                         You had to

Well yeah. din defined with a finality that deemed him  Idiot

    Whell

              I suppose thasays something about you

No idea wha

                 You

What my pencil says about me?

Youd have a better idea

                             Youre you

Mechanical pencils are my bane

                                     Methinks my beginner Ticonderoga and pencil Number Two that I prefer  used while a carpenter rather than those imprecise Carpenters pencil  damn near flat  ovoid   I avoided them like the plague  Went so far as refuse to accept customised ones general contractors offered

Clever calling cards

                                   

I . . . I don’t know that . . that a pencil or pen says anything about us.

But you had to have

                        Christ Ill submit  its the only pencil you use

Anif you have a pen the only pen you use others uncomfortable in your hand

    Ill submit when I write I only use a red ink Bic Cristal Medium point pen

Theres an enormous variety of mechanical pencils wood pencils ink pens ballpoints fountain pens nibs quills

And each says something about those who use them

    What?

Were anal for sure

he was struck by the priests line in the film Doubt  from a play by the playwright who wrote the script and directed the movie

                     Doubt can be a bond as powerful and sustaining as certainty.

that was three days ago

he still hasnt shaken it

                         and that on the heels of a dream that only he could decipher  make wherewithal  understand the imagery   the symbols

took him three days to determine the dreams message

                                                             . . . when you bury me tomorrow . . .

twisted him something fierce

made him weep in the dream

weep while learning the message

 

Doubt can be a bond as powerful and sustaining as certainty.

 

once he ascertained evidence researched made a decision

                                                                  doubt never did not like using never doubt never entered his mind

doubt  eviscerated

                       sustained  magnified  his certainty

   unfortunately   he knew a lot of people who troubled themselves doubted decisions they made

certain of their doubt

 

it was a masterful line

he was grateful he saw the film heard it recorded it

                                                      grateful  someone he hadnt expected a recommendation recommended

trailing off  . . . awright

 

 

    What?

 

Are you going to say?

I will

           I didnt want to begin havinya think I underestimate or minimise your ability to imaginehave imagined  wha occurred to me

                                  Honestly  I don believe you have

Thanks. I appreciate the consideration.

                                          However.

It is you, and you flummox me on the regular.                    

Best spit it out, not hurt yourself.

 

Im feelin a bit like a vampire  askin permission

he laughed deeply

                         Not at all. You have my permission.

And were not even high.

No                                                                                 

sighed

           Although man . . . I think you were born high.

Whatcha got?

 

    Youre familiar with the crucifiction

I am.

Brutal

Making an example. I think that was the idea, strike fear into the heart of those who would oppose you.

An execution

Yes.

I know you know  Vlad the Impaler

Oh myGod . . that exceeded brutal . believe thousands died that way.

A forest  Jah

What does one have to do with the other?

                                             Agree. Both were executions.

It occurred to me thaif Jesus Christ was impaled

                                                     How phallic  A crucifix without cross members

Jesus.

                   When did that occur to you?

It was waitin for me when I woke 

I muse before opening my eyes

Bingo
